Re-retirement, Day 1: I participated in my own version of a triathlon, 15 mile bike ride, 4 mile walk, and 2 showers.
Re-retirement, Day 2: I improved on the triathlon, 12 mile bike ride, 5 mile walk, and 2 beers.
Week one shaped up to be a real shape-up week, 87 miles of biking, 20 miles of walking, and one pound of fat gone. Not to mention my house and garden are now also in stellar shape after a week of cleaning and clipping.
I’m off to a much better start this time around.

Kind of like waiting for the bell to ring at the end of your last class of the day on a warm spring day in grade school!!!!

I had trouble adjusting to my first go at retirement. I didn't actually manage to stick it out for long! Well done for getting around to starting that to-do list on your terms.

Hi Syd,
I've been getting your feed for a few years and love it. I just started my own blog a few weeks ago with a different slant, it's about getting ready financially for retirement, when you haven't really saved enough. According to everything I read, a lot of us are in that boat, including me. So I've spent the last three years trying to catch up and my methods are starting to work for me. I decided I wanted to share them and also hear what other people are doing. Hopefully we can all cheer each other on, as we try to get ready.
